Gigantic Ugly Teddy Bears
They take up all the window space
In garish pinks and reds –
Gigantic ugly teddy bears,
The kind of gift one dreads.
They aren’t cute or cuddly
But this is no surprise –
Whoever put them out there
Thought that they’d impress by size.
I pass the store each day and guessed
A few would disappear
Since we all know the holiday
Of Valentine’s is near.
Yet still they sit, but not because
Of reasons you’d assume –
Apartments in the city
Simply do not have the room!
